Why does the new Animal Crossing game look so soulless?

Why do games look so washed out these days?

I'm just disappointed that the human PC still looks so creepy. I was really hoping they'd let us play as a cute animal this time around.

Looks exactly like New Leaf

Why is Tom Nook so fat?

hes the 1% of the AC world

why do you go out of your way to hate things that you weren't going to buy anyway

your crazy its full of soul. looks so adorable and clean im sold on it gotta get a switch again when this is out

So it's like Minecraft, but permanently in peaceful mode?

I feel like Nintendo has been slipping in the presentation department. Their UI's and visual styles have been kind of bland since the switch in general. The minimalistic style they have going with the switch UI and well as BotW and Odyssey, the new Mario Party looking as bland as can be, the LA remake. Something is definitely different

I miss 6th gen where everything was colorful and expressive as fuck, even if it was a little corny

unironically it's the colors, looks too much like pocket camp

Because you're older

No, it's like Animal Crossing with added resources.

Here’s a quick refresher into the gamer dictionary:-

>Soul
Refers to games that gamers like because they’re old and grew up with it.
>Soulless
Refers to games that gamers don’t like because they’re new and didn’t grow up with it.

Hope this helps. :)

That can't be it. Splatoon felt like the definition of 'soul' and I was what, 26 when the first came out. Its not an age thing at all

I really like the "Your own Deserted island" idea. Probably gonna be a day 1 buy for me just for that.

I was going to buy it if it looked good. But it doesn't, so I'm not.

Here's an actual definition for your shitposting ass:
>Soul
making money to make games
>Soulless
making games to make money

This is exactly what I caught onto as well. They've stopped giving their games unique presentation in favor of homogenizing them.
I'll wait and see how I feel about New Horizons, but I can understand that they felt they couldn't do much more after New Leaf without completely starting over.

I agree, it does look weirdly lifeless. Kind of like what happened with Harvest Moon Light of Hope

That's a pretty good definition. I accept this new reality.

>>depth of field
>>glossy textures
These actually work pretty well. Especially cloth textures don't look glossy at all. Just the hair

It looks exactly the same as the gamecube game. I'll just play that one instead.

>making games to make money

You do realize that everybody makes gamers to make money right?

You just got an acute case of

>Old
Soul
>New
Soulless

Lack of detail and use of shaders to substitute detail are the hallmarks of a unity designer and a lot of unity games are totally soulless because of this.

the new AC game is basically a shitty unity game

Bloom
The removal of the shapes on the grass.

If you don’t want them to make videogames for money, shouldn’t you advocate for a system in which monetary values and the necessity to acquire them are nullified?

I've been playing Pocket Camp three to five times a day for over half a year and I think that one looks better than this version. The bloom doesn't look very nice and the simple textures make the look game feel empty as opposed to clean. Same goes for the UI. Even the GameCube version had those cute homely dotted patterns, here it's just a single color. Also ROLLING LOG

Legitimately I was. I was hoping for a vastly improved Animal Crossing title after I bought New Leaf on the 3ds. I didn't get that.

Is it weird that I'm kind of happy about the delay? I would rather start my town in the early spring than in late autumn/early winter.

The E3 versions of games, especially Switch games, always look worse. Odyssey also had a similar amount of extra bloom/lack of shaders. Considering the delay, it'd be retarded to think it'll look the same on launch.

I'd actually play that. Makes me think of don't starve. Fuck I'd actually play an animal crossing x Don't starve game.

They know people will still buy their games anyways.

According to your definition YIIK was full of Soul because the creator make it because he wanted to expand the “art of video games” rather than make a blockbuster success.

It's bumming me out how negative retards are about this game. I'm genuinely excited for it, it seems like there's a lot more they've yet to show.
The only fair complaints so far are the graphics (which will almost certainly be improved by launch), and Timmy selling you shit through a menu rather than a physical store. The actual shop buildings should change this, though.
Anything else is just oblivious pessimism.

Tanuki are always portrayed as fat and doing tricks to get money and avoid paying, in folklore they're believed to make leaves appear as items such as food or money and may trick people into giving them to people for real items or money, they're also shown to beat their belly like a drum as a symbol of happiness and pride (see Link's Awakening remake trailer with the tanuki beating his belly as a clear example)

intense autism

I don't know why people are worried about there not being any shops. You're supposed to be on a deserted island so obviously nothing will be there. Clearly the game's going to be all about starting from scratch which is why there's crafting now

Save file editor. He most likely reset the start of the game 10 billion times like and autistic shiny hunter in Pokémon until he got a “perfect” town layout. Then popped his Sd card into his computer and edited the file to have the max sized tree, all the neighbors he wanted in all the locations he wanted, his favorite town fruit and half a dozen perfect fruit trees of every other kind.

When you create a new game in Animal crossin new leaf, you are given a randomly generated town. Usually the setting is not very optimal to get to do your everyday stroll through the town and do your everyday chores, making you take seemingly useless detour and will have you backtrack quite a bit. People who want to be pratical will reset their save to get a more optimal layout.
The set up in the pic is actually an ideal, if not a perfect set up, but you'll usually get something way worse than that. it implies that the guy probably reset a LOT of times to get that set-up, or was just incredibly lucky.

>in folklore they're believed to make leaves appear as items such as food or money
Huh, that explains why in AC all furniture appears as leaves unless placed in a home

rim lighting isn't bloom.

>vastly improved
Because you were able to see everything the game had to offer when they showed it, right?

Because the previous AC games all looked bad.

>mfw people actually defend a game having N64 models for four gens

As a kid?
I'd absolutely hate it compared to the glorious Gamecube days.
As an adult though?
I'd...actually enjoy making the environment from scratch quite a bit. On an island no less. No more are the days when I had my massive mansion, gold statue, and museum additions while going straight to the store every day for new furniture.
Nah. All I need is a cottage and a hammock overlooking the beach. Fuck everything else.
That being said though I understand why fans would hate on it. Cause there's enough minecraft sandbox games on the market as is.
But at least they're doing it the Animal Crossing way.

The issues people have with the game are from such stupid assumptions.
>Miles are going to be microtransactions, even though they serve the same purpose as MEOW Coupons
>Crafting will be as cancerous as it is in Pocket Leaf, even though we know there won't be a timer and crafting recipes seem sane
>The entire island will be flat and empty forever even though we've seen hills and it's already been confirmed that shops will come to the island over time
>The game is going to look the same as it does this E3 even though every Switch game has improved visually from its E3 showcase and New Leaf especially looked much worse at E3 than it did at launch

You better shut up kid, those N64 models had SOUL

There's a difference between shitting out the next instalment of a popular serie (Looking at you Pokemon/call of duty) and an actual project people put a lot of effort in (Witcher 3comes to mine. I didn't even play the game because PC is a toaster and I only have a switch, but the story on the development of this game and the few things I saw from trailers, video and me backseat gaming with a friend really gave me a good vibe about the game.

Both wants your money, but one of them seem a lot more deserved than the other.

I think we only saw the bare minimum of what the game has to offer. I'd encouage people to reserve judgement until the we get more info. I have faith in the Splatoon team.

Shitty human beings also have souls. A soul can be broken or corrupt.
Just because a game has souls, doesnt mean it's a good soul.

I think it would look good if nintendo got rid of the rim shading. I don’t know why they add that to every game now.

Why are people so angry at the concept of someone not liking what they saw?

>rolling log world
>No hills or cliffs or anything geographically diverse
>Doesn't try to innovate in any meaningful way

why the fuck does Nook get to charge you for an island and then live on your island for free and sell stuff in a store on your island again without providing you a cut? is there any character more jewish than Nook

I see a rolling log world. I see a flat geographical plot of land that is literally no bigger than New Leaf as they admitted. The only thing it innovates is by adding crafting and placing objects outside of a house.

>t.ningoydo fanboi the post

Fun fact is, you're the one comming to him for stuff. That immense debt you're in? YOU did this to yourself.

Why is it only video game fans that can't tell the difference between a passion project and a soulless product? Music fans, film fans, even television fans can clearly see the difference. What makes video game fans so much lesser?

>rolling log world
I'll admit, I don't like the log. That's a strong complaint.
>No hills or cliffs or anything geographically diverse
It seems pretty likely that terraforming will be a thing, considering there isn't a proper lake.
Also, there are hills/cliffs. They're small, but there is geographical diversity, they just haven't shown it at the treehouse yet.
>Doesn't try to innovate
>Adding a crafting/resources system B-B-BUT MINECRAFT DID IT SO ITS BAD!!!
It seems pretty clear they're trying to innovate. It's obvious we don't know all the information yet.

I'm still failing to see why you're expecting big leaps of ambition and innovation from an Animal Crossing game.

I'm a sucker for the deserted island trope, Nintendo or not. Favorite video game is don't starve, favorite board game is Robinson Crusoe. If me liking that iteration of animal crossing makes me a nintendo fanboy in your eyes, then your classifying habits are faulty at best.

Ugh.... What could have been...

I said "big leaps". Animal Crossing has fundamentally been the same game since the Gamecube. With some added features with every new release. City Folk was almost identical to Wild World. It's not like this is anything new.

Luigi’s Mansion looks pretty fantastic though.

My interest is piqued. How big is this map in comparison to GCN's?

>Doesn't try to innovate in any meaningful way
Seems to be doing things pretty damn differently from what we’ve seen, the crafting seems pretty robust.

>Beating their stomachs like drums

Yea Forums has taught you that anything that looks different than a game from 15 years ago is soulless

>it been there a few time so it good
Great argument, retard. The acre system is just plain better from an atmospheric perspective and a game design perspective.

GCbabs expect that every sequel to a game on their console should be the exact same. Luigi’s Mansion has the same type of fans.

Hopefully you can expand the island or buy access to a second. We shall see though.

Because you have no soul.

You haven't played the AC on GC lately, I can tell. So much for accusing me of not having an argument, there is nothing to argue, but let me oblige you:

>Retarded screen panning motion for EVERY single acre transition
>Everything looks flat and not engaging from an overhead view
>can't see the sky so now you rely on shadows and puddle reflections

Your nostalgia is misplaced and there is a reason they changed it fucko. But go ahead, I'm sure they will change it in the next entry that comes in 9 more years if you bitch and moan hard enough.

Awful

Fuck I want this game so bad right now. I have such an itch for this style of game in my life.

I've been burned too many times by Animal Crossing. If they add enough significant changes to this one I'll buy a Switch. Otherwise they can fuck off for toying with my emotions.

No, their testicles (金玉 literally "golden balls") are considered good luck when rubbed by travellers, that's why statues that show them enlarged are often rubbed by people as a believe of good luck, kind of like how white people who know nothing of Buddhism like to scratch fat Buddha's belly for good luck

>who cares if the artstyle is hot shit straight out of a dog's ass, look at how desaturated the colors are and how many polygons the models have!

I just don't like the shadows. Realistic shadows like that just don't match the art style at all, and the perspective they're at just makes everything seem fake. Like the game is a diorama. The simple round shadows under each character and object was a lot more natural for the style. It looks great otherwise and I'm excited for it.

I mean... you just explained it. It's barely changed between iterations but I fall for it every time. GC to DS was good. They added all the clothing customization stuff. DS to Wii added the city, which moved all the random villagers to one place but otherwise didn't add anything new. Wii to 3DS added you being the mayor, but that didn't amount to much in the end, so it added nothing.

I loved playing the GC one and they've barely updated since then. I want this one to blow my mind away but I'm not going to pay to find out.

That sounds like how Israel was established.

I think a lot of people are jumping the gun when we're looking at a very small part of a game that won't be completed until next year. To me, so far, it looks really cozy. Building up an island to a bustling little village sounds great. Collecting materials and crafting sounds like fun.

By the way, the sky is not bland, it adds to the atmosphere, you see colored skies for evening, dusk, dawn, you name it. And the sky is not useless.

Regardless of how the final product ends up, can we all just admit the trailer and gameplay showcase were shit? I've never been so bored to watch footage of one of my favorite game franchises before.

I feel bad that I don't think I made the connection considering I had seen Inuyasha. Someone had to tell me the whole leaf tanuki thing. I'm sorry, internet.

A lot of game design was based around them. Mostly allowing a greater variety of chores for villagers.

No? Animal Crossing is inherently boring.

user that’s uncalled for.

Why the fuck are we debating over Acres vs. Rolling Log when it's basically a no-brainer in 2019 to have a fully articulated camera?

No I mean somebody posting a fairly innocuous opinion and you flying into an autistic rage over it. Calm down dude, people are allowed to like different things.

Is that elevation the northmost wall of the map or will you be able to make elevated terrain?

Fuck haters this game actually looks like it has shit to do instead of farming bells and filling the museum.

I got so fucking bored in new leaf because the need to farm bells inflated playtime. Other than plotting building locations and other minor tweaks we've been doing the same shit since the gamecube. This game actually make me think you'll actually do something interesting and have some control. I wasn't even on board with this game before E3 and now 'Im probably going to get it unless the manage to fuck up horribly in the final stretch.

AC fans, we're going to have to face it. We're not going home. But I think we can make the home ourselves. I think it's only the early game that has been radically changed, and with enough time you can pretend you're in a comfy town and forget it's actually a survival island. Do not lose hope, this game can still be the kinocomf we've been waiting for.

>not even a part of the community?

Ive been playing since gamecube era and while the improvements have been decent to meh. Wild world was a decent upgrade but was limited by DS technology. The city was meh as hell. Being mayor had upsides but once again added to much bell farming. On top of that we've doing the same damn thing (museum, nook store upgrades, paying off the house, ect.) over and over. I was really looking for a decent change and I like what I see.

Agreed. It's a cool idea, but it just ruins the fun of animal crossing. Also fuck getting material and crafting.

It's fun to watch people talk to villagers because their dialogue is usually charming enough in its own right. It's also "fun" to watch people make patterns or decorate a house in the same way it's mildly entertaining to watch someone build in The Sims or do a speedpaint.

That's cool babe, but its nothing

>yeah dude if you just rub these racoon balls you'll have good luck trust me

I'm hoping that Villager house placement is done by the player, allowing better village customization, and are permanent additions (when a villager moves out, the new villager simply moves into the old building and redecorates). It was annoying having houses randomly removed and placed in previous games if you had made paths.

it's still redeemable I think
Some anons optimistically say crafting is only an option side to things, some say it will disappear in the late game.
I agree being able to control everything is not what Animal Crossing is about, but it does give us a chance to live in our ideal village

Real talk though what new animals for villagers are we going to get this time

It looks under textured and shaded. Although, if I had to guess, that's mostly because the game is still 9 months away from launch. It looks like an iPhone game right now so I'm hoping it'll clean up a bit before launch.

Completionism is a bitch. I remember being nervous over whether I could catch a scorpion on the last day they appeared for the year to complete my bug collection. Though that's the exception not the rule.

When people say acre system, most people assume they're talking about the segmented, separately loaded squares that the camera snaps to as you walk in them. What you really mean is you want the world to be flat.
Both the rolling log and the acre system are ways of limiting game processes. I would have expected the Switch wouldn't require this and could load the whole map at once, but it seems they've upped the graphics a lot so I guess rolling log is still justified. I personally never had a problem with it from a visual point of view.

More aquatic species or a bug or something. We can catch frogs and octopuses but villager types of those animals exist, I want more

None of the NPCs are generic drop eared dogs though, but now that I think about it, Blanca and Katie are literally just cats.

They added monkeys in Wild World based on Porter's model to make up for his absence in that game.

Explain how it makes anything worse without screen transitions?

Ideally it wouldn't need screen transitions and there would be some camera control. It would basically just be a way of organizing the map and town, which seeps into how daily secrets and extras works, as well as asking for chores if you want to do them.

Just organize your town according to those autismal grid-based conditions yourself and let the rest of us play using the more superior free-form system.

Look man, stop calling what you're thinking of an "acre system" and people will understand what you mean

Dude, just ask for coordinates then.

According to the interview, shops and facilities that fit with your playstyle will be available via nook whereas ones that run counter to it will not. If the interview is correct, it's more about fitting the town to The player rather than making you go achievement hunting. We'll see how it goes in practice though.

Zoom zooms are the ones who cream themselves over Apple's designs

Comparing it to Mario kart is absurd. Mario kart is Nintendos biggest franchise. Mk8 is likely to sell over 40 million, maybe even approach 50. They put all their priority on that and even had retro working on the game with them. Why would you expect them to do that for a game that will only sell around 20, when they have so many important games like BotW 2 and likely a new 3d Mario game to work on at the same time.

A flat world is not an acre system. An acre system specifically implies you've split the world up into acres, holy shit user

Yes but my point is that beyond that they fundamentally can not be compared because at the time Mario kart was Nintendos only priority while right now they're making 4-5 big games and many smaller ones.

That's a very good point, I agree

no, he's saying that they fundamentally can not be compared because at the time Mario kart was Nintendos only priority while right now they're making 4-5 big games and many smaller ones.

The reason they can't make the game look just as good as the mario kart track is due to the way racing games hand loading stuff in I think

Let me guess, you're one of the retarded zoom zooms who thought LM2 was actually good? I don't have a problem with them changing stuff, but LM2 was a clear regression, not a progression.

okay okay
you claim you want an acre system
an acre system splits up the world in acres/chunks so that the game can render each one separately
if the camera ignores the acre system, you will see invisible sections of the map, you will see things appearing and disappearing as they are rendered/unrendered. Why do you think this is a good idea?
What I suspect you mean is that you simply want the game to have a top down view and an in-plane environment (meaning not a rolling log) like in the original animal crossing, but without rendering/camera focusing on acres, and rather render things locally to your character and allow the camera to continuously follow your character. If this is true, I strongly recommend you stop referring to this as an acre system.
If my suspicions are not correct, I strongly recommend you clarify what you mean by "acre system", and don't just reply with a dismissive comment/insult

So it's not one thing, then, that's at least 3 things the acre system had that you don't want. The only thing you've expressed interest in that the acre system has is the coordinate system. Why is it so hard to just learn to say what you actually mean rather than get mad at other people for not understanding autist-speak?

the grass pattern is there just not all over the place, just in case you didn't know

Yeah I know

I wish that wasn't the case, makes the flowers and weeds look too busy in comparison.

Those things aren't tied to acres. Acres are just a means of classifying sections of the map and being able to refer to individual sections specifically in-game. A-1, C-4, etc. Your definition of the acre system seems to be different from what it actually is, because you associate it with every other aspect of GCN intrinsically. This is a very limited and misguided perspective and it's incorrect.

Got delayed into next year, don't really care anymore, I'll pay attention to it when it's actually close to release.

It doesn't. That's nowhere near NSMB levels of gloss and sterility. Just looks like an Animal Crossing game for Switch.

>Literally everyone else understands acre system to mean one thing
>YOU'RE ALL IDIOTS CONFORM TO MY STANDARDS
You literally use the word "system" to describe the acre system which means a series of interrelated mechanics. The camera angle/position and offscreen culling all play into that system.
Just using the word acres isn't any better, since it's just a metric for measuring area. It's commonly used to measure the area or explain mechanics in Rolling Log AC titles anyway.
I gave you a word that people can understand and actually means what you want acre to mean, coordinates. You're just being obtuse.

but this whole chain started with the comparison between rolling log VS "acre system". It can be assumed this means people are arguing between log worlds and flat worlds. Your definition of acre system can be perfectly compatible with a log world. There's no reason why a log world can't have its overall map showing these co-ordinated sections. If an acre system can be used on a log world, why were people initially arguing that an acre system is better than a log world? I think everyone's definition of acre system is different and yet you're all arguing about it and getting confused.

I guess I could get used to it. I prefer the mountain-y forest setting, like in the GCN game.

there is nothing inherently tropical about the island
you can have a mountain/forest island

>The camera angle/position and offscreen culling all play into that system.
Not intrinsically. You could even have a rolling log game with an acre system.
>You're just being obtuse.
Pot, meet kettle.
>It can be assumed this means people are arguing between log worlds and flat worlds.
I clarified exactly what I wanted and explained how the acre system could evolve very early in the thread.

Nothing in game design is intrinsic, that doesn't mean the word "system" is meaningless. You continue to ignore all of my points because your position is untenable.

I was really negative and disappointed when I first saw the reveal, but now I'm starting to feel excited
What's happening to me bros?

Here we go again...

When you think about it, it's still animal crossing at it's core, you just have to work for your shit this time around

Literally all Yoga Moms do this

You've ignored everything I've said because you're angry I'm saying "acres" (the in-game term) rather than "coordinates." Your position isn't an argument.

Because Yea Forums has caught you in a negativity loop. Pessimism was your immediate first response, but then on second thought, you realized the game doesn't look too bad. Besides, for all of NL's faults, it was still hella enjoyable. This should be the same. Yea Forums just loves to blow the faults out of proportion.

He looked cute in the Sweater too. but i like the new outfit because it reminds me of Tommy Vercetti.

Because that in-game term means something completely different from what you're using it as? I haven't ignored anything you've said, you're just saying things that are blatantly incorrect.

go on then, edit that image and post a better looking one in this thread, I'll be waiting

My initial reaction to the reveal was apathy but after rewatching it a few times and seeing the treehouse segment I definitely think it's gonna be great. Just wish it was still coming out in 2019.

My initial opinion had absolutely nothing to do with Yea Forums. I watched that reveal trailer alone and I felt so negatively shocked by it that I felt sick. If anything, talking with Yea Forums has helped me realise it's not so bad and I'm warming up to it.

>Because that in-game term means something completely different from what you're using it as?
According to your own personal definition, even though the intent as well as the actual definition has already been clarified repeatedly. What a stupid and autistic thing the get hung up over, let it go.

oh my god, dude, you have no actual definition to go on and literally everyone disagrees with you

I guess i have to buy a switch now.

I wonder how easy it is to kick out villagers or get certain ones to live on the island. I want a town filled with just crocs or pigs..

The grass looks so plain. Why is the triangle pattern only in a couple spots?

It's probably like the paths in that it'll be a stackable item you can place down like furniture and joins together

interesting choices user

Well, then I apologize, but I'm confused. Still, glad you're warming up to it.

Most likely you realised to was a bad trailer with the game you love hiding under it. They put so much focus on the beginning of the game where you have nothing and it looked barren since you need to work your way to everything

I'm most excited for the abortion clinics, myself. Pencils have erasers, people!

why does KK Slider have DSL

An acre is an American unit of measurement that describes the length and width of a square of land. Each acre is composed of an area of 16×16 squares, totaling 256 squares each. This concept was most prominent prior to Wild World where acres locked camera movement and were used to navigate the town map.

what the actual fuck

They better add more activities. I also hope that there are multiple islands you can live on, because that map was extremely small for a console game.

I actually haven’t played ac since city folk, were these that big of a problem?

it's technically bigger than Population Growing's map

>just enhanced Mii models

Literally get Dragon Quest Builders 2

Wrong

Nobody has anything against a grid being placed on the overworld map user. When people discuss "the acre system" they are specifically referring to the rendering and camera being bound to an acre. Markings on a map is not worth talking about.

Reminder that we might have more of these 'packages' in future directs, and there's a chance that we might have extra islands.

Then you should be saying "top-down perspective" rather than referring to the acre system.

Would you keep all of your progress when selecting a new package?

I dunno, she seemed pretty fuckable

because you are a contrarian kid that simply wants the attention and approval from other contrarian kids

>emoji

opinion discarded

Why should we recede our axioms of animal crossing discussion just because one autist thinks that "acre system" means marking on a map and not an actual SYSTEM based around ACRES?

Actually people rather liked them. At least, those lucky enough to get their favorite villagers without playing scalper prices. Rip dreams of Ankha.

Good question. The same reason we should ignore any discussion on ideas for reinventing the acre system and going into a debate focused on semantics instead.

How do I play the first game without having to buy a used Gamecube?

Buy a used Wii.

emulate it

so you agree with me and we would both like this discussion to end
finally

Dolphin.

Are there gamecube emulators that actually work now? And that you don't need to learn a bunch of linux/command line scripts to use?

Change is inevitable

No, you're agreeing with me. I told you to let it go several posts ago.

Where have you been? Dolphin has been a near perfect GC/Wii emulator for years.

I think one, or both of us have lost track of who we were originally talking to
lots of people have been jumping in and out of this conversation and I can't even tell which side of the argument you were on, sorry

Partly, it is TCG so enjoy never getting what you want, but they were a easy way to get a ton of cheap "Generic" Amiiboos for games that let you spam them like BotW..

If you use Tagmo to bypass the RNG and not spend money (other then on your tags) though the functionality go in the other way, you can instantly get rare furniture and any villager you want, which kinda depersonalizes the game.

And as user said, people scalp, like they are wont to do with Trading Cards.

>it implies that the guy probably reset a LOT of times to get that set-up, or was just incredibly lucky.

Chigau!

Villagers won't place houses wherever you put stamp tiles. Just cover the entire map in stamps minus the 3x3 spots for their houses, and voila.

I think the reveal kinda triggered a mobileshit red flag, but the actual gameplay made me feel more optimistic about it

Needs to be fatter!

Probably my favorite Amiibo functions from NL were the non AC ones.
